A SIGMA Bsl,imorean writes 10 the
Southern Churchmon, Of this city, letter
on the subject Of funerals, saying, among
other things:
"His Henry Ward Beecher'sl desire was
that when he departed there should be no
evidences OF mourning as commonly dis
played; that the heathenish Grape and other
gloomy accomplishments might be done
away; and so the wreath OF flowers took
the place OF the Grape on the door-bell;
sweet and continuous music filled the air
Of the church.
awhile the subject OF funeral reform is
in agitation, why not take a lesson from
Plymouth church, Congregational though
1t be, and put aside the badges OF heathen-
ism and other emblems Of grief, as dis.
played only. with propriety, by those who
are tcithout hope? Instead OF dirge-like
HYMNS or melancholy chants, rather sing a
Magnificent, Nunc Dimiltis, or Benedlcte,
and so fifty rejoice and properly celebrate
the heavenly BIRTH"

Convention or No Convention.

Convention or No Convention.
Some weeks ago the Democratic State
Central Committee met in this city aud de-
cIded that Democratic State Convention
must he held this year, but left the time
and the place TO be Fixed hereafter.
AT the time OF the meeting Of the com.
mi,tee we bad doubts as to the expedieucy
OF holding Democratic State Convention
this year. Entirely willing, however, to
yield to the better judgment OF the COM
miltec, we have said nothing on the sub
iect.
In the mean time, the British commits
sioners have visited Richmond, and the
surroundings Of the Democratic party have
been so changed that some good Democrats
are disposedto have the Democratic State
Central Committee reconsider its action,
and postpone the Democratic State Conven.
ton until next year.
Certainly the circumstances OF the Demo-
cratic party have changed during the last
few weeks. But we are not at all certain
that this change does not render 1t more
important to have State convention than
it seemed TO be six weeks ago. Upon
what platform are the Democratic can.
didaies for the Legislature to stand?
Is there to be a go-as-you-plesse
race? Are all shades OF opinion
upon the debt question to be regarded
as equally worthy Of favor? When
Mahoneite candidate charges his Demo-
cratic opponent with being "at sea" on
the debt question and without any party
credo so far as that the most important of
all the questions before the people is con-
cerned, what shall he replyS Shall he
make speech for "free trade and sailors
rights"f
We think we know that the new move
mCnt in opposition TO the calling OF aDem.
ocrstic State Convention means that the
Democrats must be considered and desire to
be considered as standing by the RIDDLE
BERGER bill. But wouldn't it be better TO
say so officially and authoritatively Has
not the seton OF the Legislature made 1t
necessary for a body clothed with full au-
thorty to speak for the whole Democratic
party to be assembled for that purposei Mr..
BARBOUR's iud gment is almost certain to be
right. Whether be favors or opposes a
convention, however, he must necessarily
convene his committee at an early day to
consider the subject, seeing that the de-
cision OF the committee when it last assem-.
bed was that a convention ought to be
assembled this summer.
